  Premiere Oil Fired Furnace

When you want to experience exceptional comfort, increased efficiency, and quieter operation while still receiving the handcrafted quality and proven warranty of Thermo Pride's traditional oil furnace, select the Premiere Oil Furnace with the ECM variable-speed blower motor. Since the ECM motor automatically adjusts its speed for varying heating and cooling modes your home's maximum comfort is achieved.

Benefits of the ECM motor include:
  • quieter start up,greater efficiency, and more comfortable operation due to infinite fan motor speeds

  • delivery of comfortable airflow in both the heating and cooling modes.On a call for heat or cooling the blower motor starts at the slower speed and builds to the correct running speed

  • automatically compensates for restricted ducts or a dirty air filter by increasing the motor speed

  • energy bills will be lower due to quieter efficiency of the ECM motor (especially when you run the blower for long periods of time.)

  • reduced fan speeds will run quietly and save energy when the blower runs constantly as with air filtration, for example
